wow. what a deuesche.
i dont understand what there is to gain by doing all that:confused:

Again I’ll propose my idea to have new members secluded to only be able to post in a certain area until a certain post count or go through a certain verification to be able to use the forum freely to avoid all this spam...
 
At least they aren’t posting gay porn
 
There are measures that can be put in place to reduce this but it's not as easy as most think.

These are not humans making these posts - it's automated software that runs nonstop. CAPCHAs aren't a sure bet. Remember how a CAPCHA used to be one or two words? Developers made software to get around that. That's why you now see animated CAPCHAs, choose all images with cars, etc.

You can try forms of CAPCHA, you can try IP bans, but these guys are always finding ways around it. Security is reactive, not proactive.

Are they gaining anything out of doing it or is it just a sadistic pass-time?

Very high likelihood of malware. What better place to embed a virus? A place like here where there's high traffic.

I visited a link in one of the posts. It's likely just a method to get traffic to their websites and get advertising revenue off those who end up clicking through.

This works for the same reason the Nigerian prince email scheme still works - plenty of people are still very easily enticed and don't know when they're being scammed on the Internet.

Didn't get any malware / virus / etc. when I visited one of their sites, and I'm running 3 security programs.
 
It's likely an attempt at extortion. "Pay me x$ and I will stop spamming your forum"
 
They more than likely hit all kinds of forums from bodybuilding to recipe sharing. Probably a combination of driving hits to websites and possible money grab of we will stop for X amount of money. Once these guys set up the bots it's almost autopilot how they spam so many sites. Almost cruise control for the guys in charge.
 
I'm still betting you can limit the # of threads per day/hour so they can't flood the whole damn forum but only do like 3 threads and then get blocked out....

Could be wrong but if not I hope it happens.
